484 STEAM LOCOMOTIVE

Update 4: The Coal Car is made and has (almost) all the systems I want, but most relevant the steam locomotive will now take water from the Coal Car, there is also a front knuckle coupler too, button on the front toward the bottom will deploy or retract it.

Update 3: added an actual firebox, removed coal knob, you now need to throw coal in to raise the fire's temperature :P the button on the far left of the firebox opens the hatch, the button sorta under the regulator ignites the fire.

Update 2: added front buffers and rear coupler in preparation for the Coal Car :)

Update 1: the 'D' key will now lean you out the window, the 'A' key will now activate the Cylinder Valves (Steam doesn't like the technical term), you may also notice the Smoke Stack "chuffs" as the train moves :)

A fully functional steam locomotive in Plasma! I finally got around to fixing it and boy is it great.

Currently it is capable of forwards and backwards movement, requires the rails to turn (will also be uploading the big loop to the workshop). If your computer isn't capable of processing the railway there is a fix: The motors that are responsible for allowing the leading and trailing trucks are named, search either "leading" or "trailing" in the sketch menu and you should find them, just create a script to lock them in place and it should work just find going forwards or backwards without the railway.

In the future I hope to finally figure out an implementation of the steam mechanics, but for now let's just say that it works on magic :P The controls are: W to move the Johnson bar forwards, S to move it back, Space to open the Regulator (throttle), and C to close the Regulator, the two knobs down next to the fire box will in the future control the temperature of the fire, but for now just treat them as a "smoke maker" XD

If you are using the locomotive on the rails, sometimes it gets stuck on the turns, all you have to do to fix this is just pull the Johnson bar to the other side, let the loco roll, then push the Johnson bar back and it should go without issue :)

Anyways, have fun!
